Relationship between Art and Technology in 1960s

Reflection circa 1973 was, grinding away best, an unobtrusively venturesome redesign on prior models. A significant part of the new painting seen in Manhattan doesn't climb so high. It's generally a gifted however doomed repeat. Four decades back, "execution workmanship" was an option to painting. It was offbeat and clunky, past innovation, or perhaps unreasonably underneath it, intended to reflect a world in which materials were transient, models pointless, values tricky. A ton of late execution workmanship in New York, especially that in the biennial celebration Performa, has had very nearly the inverse properties: It's cleaned, bundled, pricey, storehouse primed.

Many historical fiction films that we watch fail to depict history in an accurate way due to the emphasis on entertainment and revenue instead of keeping the integrity of its historical events. However, some motion pictures stay true to history while providing entertainment through fictional stories. Although the stories are fictional, movie writers can craft stories that represent the history, attitudes, and personalities of a time period in a historically accurate way. A prime example of a movie that is entertaining and represents history accurately is Across The Universe, directed by Julie Taymor in 2007. This film succeeds in

1. I took my time to look up what was happening in the 1950's. I saw there were a lot of new inventions being made, it was all technology. Television was in the highest rank of new electronic appliances. It wasn't invented in the 1950's but it was becoming very popular.

Technology today has hit a huge breakthrough since the 1950’s. One huge invention that has been created in the past few years in the self driving car. This is a car that does not have a driver and drives and parks itself. These cars have all of the things needed to be able to detect other cars, speeds, pedestrians and can do it in all from two football fields in length away. This car is being made through a company named Apple but the people that are producing the cars are branching off with google and uber, they are also talking with volkswagen and BMW regarding the technology. Teenage girls in the 1950’s dressed a lot different than we do today in 2017. Girls were expected to dress like their elders. Typical teenage girls wore long skirts,

During the 1930’s the federal government was the largest source of funds to artist through public art programs. This funding allowed the government to suppress certain subjects that were occurring on society at the time. An area the government suppressed art subject matter involved labor disputes that were occurring through the country. In the 1930’s an important issue that was taking public stage was workers attempting to unionize to better working conditions. In the 1930’s the labor force attempting to unionize faced a “unified opposition from a combination of industry and government forces” (pg.413) The federal government was able to suppress many painting showing this subject, but some artist were able to incorporate the topic into

Science Fiction is not real! Science fiction usually is another world or futuristic equipment. The Illustrated Man is about different stories and events in one book. Each has a creepy or disturbing outcome. There is usually a conflict between a human and another lifeform!

Half the decade consists of the need for new advancements in technology due to world war two . In the early 1940s the inventions were based on war needs like the atomic bomb, and nuclear reactor. But in the second half of the decade there were inventions like the transistor , microwave oven and the plastic artificial eye.

The beginning of 20th century was a time of drastic change. New developments were made in the arenas of the classical sciences, social science, psychology and philosophy - each challenging traditional thought. Industrialization and the introduction of many new, challenging concepts in the fields of politics as well as the development of new technologies gave artist more freedom to innovate and break the rules of traditional art. By using new materials, techniques and the new approach artists were pushing boundaries of what has previously been accepted art practice in order to invent radically new styles.

The abstract painting that dominated French art in the 1950s was invariably premised on the notion that an artist could communicate with the viewer through the power of

Alexander Calder addresses movement and motion, through the pivot present in the centre of the artwork. The artwork’s material practice which uses sheet metal, rod and paint is an incorporation of the postmodern. The artist’s choice of materials allows to be viewed in a three dimensional setting, where we as the audience can view on all sides the movement of the artwork. We as the audience engage with a kinetic sculpture that is susceptible to natures force. As we move around we experience a shift in perspective as each part of the artwork moves,

To understand most period and movements in modern art, one must first understand the context in which they occurred. When one looks at the various artistic styles, one will realize how artists react to historical and cultural changes and how artists perceive their relation to society.

In 2016, Black Mountain College was recognized in two major exhibits as the creative genesis of art in America. Curator Helen Molesworth’s show, “Art of Our Time” at Los Angeles’ MOCA museum re-contextualizes the story of 20th century modern art in America, re-framing the common idea that it began in New York City. The Hammer Museum’s “Leap Before You Look”, developed first at the ICA in Boston and then taken to Los Angeles, reflects the sheer scale and relevance of art, performance, literature and music developed at BMC during 1933 to 1957.

Art and Design are important because they both make the world more sensible and a better place, they also bring a sense of enjoyment and make it easier to understand everything around us even more. Here we will discuss the role played by Art and Design in modern advertising.

According to oxforddictionaries.com the definition of the word media is, “The main means of mass communication (broadcasting, publishing, and the Internet), regarded collectively.” Mass communication inventions like paper, the printing press, and film changed the foundations in which society was built on. In todays society, it seems like everyday there is a new development in media that “will change our lives”. Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, are all forms of mass media, but one could dispute that they are unnecessary to the development of society. Walter Benjamin argues in, “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction,” that with reproducibility of images, submission towards the film increases thus a lack in the formation of one’s own opinions. Today, if asked, not many would protest the invention and rise of film, but according to Walter Benjamin, a mass media invention like film, was something society did not need. So, while new mass media transformations may seem unnecessary to the development of society, there is a chance that over a longer period of time society would not be able to fathom itself without it.

In today’s society, technology and art go hand in hand. Art has been around for a long time but technology such as computers are still very new. These two mediums have comingled and now evolve and effect the other. Art has changed to reflect the vast improvements technology has contributed to communication and the ability to create using digital space. Technology has also changed with artist pushing the boundaries of what is technical possible in the digital realm. Much of today’s art is created and presented in digital formats. The question of whether digital art is truly art has risen among many critics in the art community.
